Since that was the case, she might as well kill Xiao Yuan first and end it all.
At the thought of this, Qin Xiaoyao’s eyes flashed with killing intent.
The Second Prince noticed her expression and a trace of intrigue flashed across his eyes.
“Xiao Yuan is not Xiao Tu, and he’s definitely not anything like those Liao army generals you killed before.
“The Liao army’s campsite outside High Pass Town stretches for a few miles and the place is guarded strictly. It’s difficult for outsiders to sneak in. And don’t even bring up the topic of assassinating the Liao army’s Supreme Commander,” the Second Prince said.
Qin Xiaoyao glanced at the Second Prince, feeling a little aggrieved.
“I wasn’t thinking of that,” she said.
Of course, she was thinking of that.
After all, Xiao Yuan was the commander of the Liao army and he was the one who was determined to attack the Jin State.
If she could kill Xiao Yuan, the Liao army would naturally retreat. Pulling the carpet from under their feet was also one way to deal with the Liao army. It was much less troublesome than fighting the Liao army head-on.
However, since the Second Prince had voiced his objection, she could not continue with this line of thought.
No matter how capable she was, she was still one person at the end of the day.
If she was surrounded by tens of thousands of Liao soldiers, she would still die, just like countless ants could bite an elephant to death.
The Second Prince smiled at Qin Xiaoyao.
“It’s good that you don’t have such thoughts.
“Next, let’s talk about the defense layout. Also, what’s the most appropriate arrangement for your Special Forces Team and the elite soldiers?” “Mm-hmm!” Qin Xiaoyao nodded.
The Second Prince then began to explain the situation regarding his own troops.
After the battle, the Liao soldiers suffered heavy casualties, but many of his men died as well.
Now, he only had 20,000 soldiers left.
As for Qin Xiaoyao’s side, after deducting the casualties, she only had 14,000 people left. There were only about 5000 elite soldiers while the rest were new recruits who lacked combat experience.
“Your Highness, you’ll be in charge of the town gates in the north and south. I’ll take care of the town gate in the west,” Qin Xiaoyao said in a low voice.
When she saw that the Second Prince didn’t object, Qin Xiaoyao continued, “I’ll deploy 3000 elite soldiers and 3000 new recruits to guard the town. The remaining 6000 new recruits will be incorporated into the logistics department and will be distributed to the different town gate towers to assist in providing logistics support to the soldiers defending the town.”
The Second Prince’s eyes flickered.
“Good! 2000 men will be responsible for one tower, and the military supplies department will make the overall arrangements,” he responded.
As they had suffered too many casualties, the Second Prince was preparing to transfer the soldiers who were previously in charge of logistics to the front line, but he was worried about problems with the logistics support.
Now that Teacher Qin had arranged for her men to take over, it had solved his worry.
“Mm-hmm,” Qin Xiaoyao replied.
“Then I still have 2000 elite soldiers and 3 Special Forces Teams left.” A glint flashed across Qin Xiaoyao’s eyes when she said this.
The Second Prince’s interest was piqued as well, and he looked at Qin Xiaoyao.
“Tell me your plan,” he said with a smile.
The corners of Qin Xiaoyao’s lips curled up.
“How about the same plan as last night?
“Set up an ambush in advance, then let some Liao troops enter the town, and afterward we swallow them up.”
Her men had achieved a great victory at a very small price. Right now, everyone was still feeling a little unsatisfied.
How could she not continue?
However, the Second Prince frowned.
“I’m afraid it won’t be that simple.
“Xiao Yuan has just suffered such a huge loss from our ambush. He won’t be fooled so easily again.
“At the very least, he probably won’t attack the town at night again.”
The corners of Qin Xiaoyao’s lips curled up once more.
“No problem. Daytime is fine. I want to make things so difficult for him that whether he sends his troops in or not are both equally hard decisions.
“Of course, if I really want to let his troops enter the town, I have to pick the right time. I also can’t have too many people in one go.
“It should be restricted to about 5000 people or less each time.” With her 3 Special Forces Teams and 3000 elite soldiers working together, they would be able to get rid of them in less than two hours.
If the Liao army was stupid enough, after falling for their trap twice, their advantage in numbers would soon be gone.
At that point, if Xiao Yuan still dared to attack the town, she would really have to respect him as a hero.
The Second Prince pondered as he listened, and then he nodded.
“If the Liao army still attacks the town from three sides, we can try this strategy.
“However, based on my understanding of Xiao Yuan, he’ll probably concentrate his forces on one of the town towers.”
In any case, if he were the other party, he would most likely make such a decision too.
This way, after the town was broken through, they would concentrate their forces and charge in. No matter what kind of ambush was inside, as long as they had enough troops, they would be able to neutralize the ambush.
Qin Xiaoyao was silent.
She thought for a while it and felt that the Second Prince’s analysis made sense.
She then praised the Second Prince in her heart. The Second Prince was indeed more experienced in warfare than she was.
“Then, if Xiao Yuan really only attacks one tower, how does Your Highness plan to deal with it?” Qin Xiaoyao quickly asked.
The Second Prince’s eyes lit up.
“Your 3 Special Forces Teams and 3000 elite soldiers don’t need to stay in the town,” he suddenly said.
Qin Xiaoyao was surprised.
“Let the 3 Special Forces Teams each lead 1000 elite soldiers. They will leave the town overnight and go into hiding.
“Tomorrow, if Xiao Yuan attacks the three town gate towers together, tell them to bide their time and wait for the right opportunity.
“At the right time, they will launch their attack to kill the Liao soldiers and help defend the town.”
Qin Xiaoyao thought for a moment.
With such an arrangement, the danger faced by the Special Forces Team and the elite soldiers would be greater.
At the same time, compared to luring the enemy into the town to surround and annihilate them, the battle results would not be as good.
However, there were also benefits. If the Special Forces Team and the elite soldiers launched their attack at the critical moment, they could reverse the situation and prevent the Liao army from breaking through the town gate towers.
Looking at the big picture, the Second Prince’s strategy was more reliable.
“What if the Liao army focuses their forces on one of the town gate towers?” Qin Xiaoyao asked. It could be considered that she agreed with the Second Prince’s plan.
The Second Prince’s eyes flickered.
“Then these 3000 men will wait outside the town for an opportunity to strike.
“When the bulk of the Liao troops enters the town, let them kill their way into the Liao army’s base camp at the rear.
“It’s best if they can kill Xiao Yuan. If they can’t, they should at least set on fire all the food rations in the Liao army’s base camp.”
In this way, even if the Liao army could take down High Pass Town, they could forget about invading the heart of the Jin territories without any food rations.
Moreover, with the Second Prince around, even if the defenses of High Pass Town were broken through, he would definitely defeat the Liao army thoroughly.
If Xiao Yuan thought he could march straight into the Jin State unchallenged via High Pass Town, he must be dreaming.
Qin Xiaoyao’s eyes widened in shock.
She almost clapped her hands and cheered.
“Your Highness is a genius. Your humble servant is impressed!” Qin Xiaoyao replied quickly.
She was really full of admiration.
The Second Prince certainly lived up to his reputation as a veteran on the battlefield. This strategy was something that ordinary people could not have thought of.
When he saw Qin Xiaoyao’s expression, the Second Prince felt quite pleased.
The generals who followed him actually looked at him with this kind of expression quite often. However, he felt exceptionally happy when Teacher Qin also showed this sort of reaction.
“If that’s the case, it’s not impossible to kill Xiao Yuan as well,” Qin Xiaoyao suddenly said.
“Your Highness, why don’t I also leave the town? If the Liao army really breaks through the town’s defenses, I will go and kill Xiao Yuan.
“With me personally taking action, the chances of success will be higher.”
Xiao Yuan was a big threat as long as he was alive.
It was better to kill him for greater peace of mind.
When dealing with enemies, it was better to kill them as soon as possible.
Otherwise, if the enemy was constantly thinking about hitting back, he might really strike at some point.
The Second Prince glanced at Qin Xiaoyao.
He realized that she was very fixated on killing Xiao Yuan.
He could naturally guess some of the reasons.
However, he still felt that this woman’s appetite for vengeance was a little too strong. Or rather, her perception of hidden danger was a little too paranoid.
“No. You have to stand guard at the west gate so that the Liao army won’t discover anything is amiss,” the Second Prince said in objection to her proposal..
